Ed Nash was born in Letchworth Garden City, England but has been a Nashville resident for fifteen years and is a well recognized abstract artist of the South.

At the age of 13, Ed was awarded an art scholarship to Bedford School in England. He then went on to study Fine Art and Psychology at Reading University - graduating Magna Cum Laude. After several years as an art dealer and appraiser, he went back to pursue his life long dream of becoming a full time visual artist.

Much of his work has a deep connection with the Japanese aesthetic wabi-sabi, which can be described as one of beauty that is imperfect, impermanent and incomplete. His paintings and mixed media work are a response to modern day society’s view of visual perfection. The work reflects and celebrates the patina produced through the passage of time and exposure to the elements.
